Textbook Question
Chapter 7.2, Problem 1TC
You continuously monitor the photosynthetic oxygen production from the leaf of a plant illuminated by white light. How and why would oxygen production change if you placed filters in front of the light source that transmit (a) only red, (b) only infrared, and (c) only green light onto the leaf?

You continuously monitor the photosynthetic oxygen production from the leaf of a plant illuminated by white light. How and why would oxygen production change if you placed filters in front of the light source that transmit (a) only red, (b) only infrared, and (c) only green light onto the leaf?
Which molecule is responsible for the absorption of photic energy for photosynthesis? Where is that molecule located in the photosynthetic cells?
If plants described in problem 4 are illuminated by a combination of light of 680 nm and 700 nm, the oxygen production exceeds that of either wavelength alone. Explain.
